E4 Country Profile: Energy Efficiency in India
…s total energy use was covered by mandatory energy efficiency policies. The main contributor being the Perform, Achieve and Trade (PAT) scheme, the key policy driving efficiency gains in the industrial sector. The adoption of appliance standards and building codes in some states, coupled with growing energy access and new construction, resulted in policy coverage in the buildings sector of 13% in 2018. In the transport sector, the implementation of passenger car and heavy-duty vehicle standards increased the policy coverage to 6% in 2018. Ambitious plans have also been developed to increase the penetration of electric vehicles. Energy efficiency…

Does security of supply drive key biofuel markets in Asia?
…cause domestic supplies to meet a higher share of fuel demand from road transport in 2024.Nevertheless, security of supply is not the sole motivation for biofuel policy support. In China, India and Indonesia, supporting demand for nationally important agricultural commodities has also been a key factor in the introduction of mandate policies.In energy terms, biodiesel consumption in Indonesia already resulted in a notably higher share of domestically produced fuel supplies in 2017. By 2024, its contribution could expand to offset 17% of diesel demand. If vehicle testing results indicate that it is possible to use B30 fuel (30%…

Fuel economy in India
Market profile and analysis of fuel consumption trends Light-duty vehicle (LDV) sales have contracted in India since 2017, with 3.2 million sold in 2019. Nevertheless, India remains the fifth-largest LDV market. Average fuel consumption of new LDVs dropped from 6.9 litres of gasoline equivalent per 100 kilometres (Lge/100 km) in 2005 to 5.7 Lge/100 km in 2019, which is 20% below the global average. This is mainly attributable to a high share of diesel LDVs and an average LDV weight that is 24% lower than the global average.Fuel economy has improved since…

Methodology to Assess the System Value of Different Corporate Procurement Strategies in Developing Economies
…investments is also an important way to empower consumers who want to ensure that their energy use is not worsening climate change. To understand the impact of corporate procurement on power systems, it is important to recognise that in most cases companies are not directly consuming the ‘clean electrons’ that they procure, whether through power purchase agreements or green certificates. Many corporate procurement strategies allow the clean electricity to be purchased in a different location from the company’s electricity demand, and also at a different time, for example only requiring that the energy be balanced across an entire year…

Canada Oil Security Policy
…crude oil production has grown faster than pipeline capacity. Between 2013 and 2016, about 1 mb/d of nameplate pipeline capacity was added in Canada. No incremental nameplate capacity has since been added while several expansion projects were terminated. In addition to the termination of the Keystone XL project in 2021, the Energy East project was cancelled by the proponent in 2017 and the Northern Gateway project was dismissed by the government in 2016. However, in 2019, the federal government approved the Trans Mountain Expansion project, a twinning of the existing 1150 km Trans Mountain Pipeline between Edmonton, AB and Burnaby…
